implement a new organization at the beginning of this year. While the recovery in the First Half remained moderate, management expects an acceleration in the Second Half;
Monthly Recurring Revenues (MRR2 ) amounted to €2.712 million in July, declined in Q1 2025 after the nonrenewal of a large contract, and were flat in Q2 2025, growth being offset by a negative \$ effect around - €0.2 million.
Margin on direct costs was up +6 points to 77%, reflecting a better product mix. Gross profit was also up +6 points, to 61%, a €3.1 million growth.
During H1 2025, Ateme pursued its reorganization and rationalization initiatives to reduce operating expenses by -€2.7 million over the period, while preserving its innovation roadmap and ability to deliver better numbers in the 2 nd Half:
As a result, Ateme recorded a +€5.8 million EBITDA improvement, from -€4.3 million in H1 2024 to €1.5 million for H1 2025.
The operating result improved by the same amount, with a loss reduced to -€1.1 million vs -€6.9 million last year.
The -€2.2 million financial loss, with a €1.5 million exchange loss, brings the net result to -€3.3 million (up €5.5 million over the period).
Shareholders' equity stood at €30.9 million as of 30 June 2025.
Available cash stood at €2.3 million, compared to €9.5 million at the end of 2024, while June 30 traditionally represents a low point in terms of cash position.
Total debt3 decreased by €1.3 million during the semester as no new loans nor tax credit financing were put in place. As of 30 June 2025, The Group's adjusted net financial debt4 stood at €9.4 million, compared with €3.5 million as of 31 December 2024. The factoring facility (up to €10 million) remained fully available since only €300 k had been requested at the end of June, compared with €3.6 million at the end of 2024.
Ateme positions itself as a key driver of innovation, efficiency, and growth in the evolving media landscape.

Ateme showcased its latest video delivery innovations at IBC 2025 in Amsterdam mid-September, spanning live sports, OTT streaming, advertising, and distribution.
Highlights included:
We continue to invest in our core expertise: video compression. By constantly pushing the boundaries, we're enhancing our encoders to set the benchmark across multiple use cases. Our TITAN family has achieved major advances in density, compression efficiency — helping customers boost video quality or cut distribution costs — and in ultra-low latency, which is essential for live sports.
As an established seasonal pattern, Second Half revenues are expected to exceed significantly the First Half.
This growth will be driven in particular by new commercial momentum in the US since the reorganization at the beginning of the year, and by the rapid success with new strategic American and European clients in streaming and sports, on which we have focused our efforts.
Improving profitability remains the top priority for this year, reinforced by our strong First Half results. After increasing our margin on direct cost by €3.1 million in the First Half while reducing our cost base by €2.7 million, we expect a more challenging environment in the Second Half 2025 with an unfavorable currency impact. However, the Second Half of the year traditionally benefits from more favorable seasonality. As a reminder, Ateme generated negative EBITDA of -€4.4 million in the First Half of 2024, followed by a positive EBITDA of €5.5 million in the Second Half.
We therefore believe we are fully on track to meet our 2027 medium-term objective, namely: linear growth to Revenues of €130 million, €99million in Margin on Direct Costs, €22 million in EBITDA, and €4 million in Monthly Recurring Revenue.
Michel Artières, Chairman and CEO of Ateme, comments: "The 1 st semester rewards our efforts to reorganize and streamline the organization. The significant bottom line improvement is the result of both sales growth (+€3 million margin on direct costs) and savings on our structural costs (-€2.7 million operating expenses). We are on track to deliver in 2025 in line with our medium-term objectives. Our confidence is all the greater as we are making rapid progress in expanding our customer base with new strategic clients in streaming and sports"
